OMAHA, Neb. Doudoune Canada Goose Homme Pas Cher . -- Molly Hannis went to bed Monday night with a singular goal in mind: parlaying her top seed in the 100-meter breaststroke into a slot on the U.S. Olympic team.She woke up to news that broadened her vision.Like so many athletes with University of Tennessee pedigrees, Hannis revered mold-breaking basketball coaching icon Pat Summitt, whose death at age 64 was announced Tuesday morning.Hannis and her teammates at the U.S. Olympic swimming trials in Omaha were the only Vols in competition anywhere in the country on Tuesday. There were about 30 athletes from the college program and the post-graduate Tennessee Aquatics club. The Tennessee contingent caucused and decided to wear orange to distinguish themselves from the crowd. They snipped lengths of purple ribbon, the color adopted by Alzheimers disease awareness advocates, to wear around their wrists.As for the 24-year-old Hannis, I just wanted to honor her with my race, she said.Hannis fell just short of booking a trip to the Rio de Janeiro Games, finishing third with a time of 1:06.65 behind Indiana Universitys Lilly King (1:05.20) and SwimMAC Carolinas Katie Meili (1:06.07). Hannis will have another Olympic shot, in the 200-meter breaststroke, later this week.Not quite what I wanted, Hannis said of her effort on Tuesday night. I learned a lot, though, through all the races. I think I just got a little bit frantic at the end.Summit touched the lives of thousands of people, changed Tennessee athletics, changed womens sports in general, said Hannis, who met Summitt at a football game in 2012, the same year the legend officially stepped down from her head-coaching position after publicly revealing she had early onset dementia, Alzheimers type.Its been a very emotional day, Hannis said. I cant say it any other way other than that she was a truly extraordinary woman and Im glad I got to know [Summitt] what little I did.Christine Magnuson, the 2008 100-meter butterfly silver medalist, was Tennessees last U.S. Olympic swimmer.Swimming and diving coach Matt Kredich, hired to head the Tennessee womens team in 2005, said Summitt had a profound influence on him and his colleagues.She coached the coaches, he said, adding that Summitt regularly invited them to her home for dinner and offered to talk to recruits during their campus visits.I felt like I wanted to write down and remember and live everything she said, said Kredich, who has led both the mens and womens swimming and diving program since 2012. She carried so much gravity.During Kredichs first year as the womens coach, he faced a thorny disciplinary issue, when some of his swimmers were cited for underage drinking. Summitt asked to speak with them.She said, The people who came before you set a standard, and its not your right to diminish that standard, Kredich recalled. I swear she stared right through every person in that room. Canada Goose Chilliwack Bomber Pas Cher . The deal is pending a physical, assistant general manager Bobby Evans said. Traded from Seattle to Baltimore on Aug. 30, Morse also can play first base and right field to give manager Bruce Bochy some flexibility in writing his lineup. Canada Goose Bomber Femme . Now that hes hitting streaking teammates with pin-point passes for easy layups, Love is asserting himself as one of the true superstars in the league. http://www.canadagoosefrancepascher.fr/canada-goose-manteau.html .com) - The Montreal Canadiens will try to halt their longest losing streak of the season when they host the struggling New York Islanders in tonights clash at the Bell Centre. The World Cup of Hockey makes its return in Toronto after a 12-year hiatus. Heres a look at the eight teams involved in the tournament, which opens Saturday:CANADAThe unquestioned favorites, Canada will try to recapture the World Cup of Hockey after winning the last edition 12 years ago.The Canadians boast the deepest pool of talent in the tournament, stacked with Art Ross, Hart and Norris trophy winners, as well as the last two goaltenders to win the Vezina. The puzzle pieces should be interchangeable for coach Mike Babcock with just about every player capable of taking on a role or position as needed. Twelve of the 13 forwards have scored at least 30 goals in an NHL season.Canada offered one of the stingiest defensive showings ever at the 2014 Sochi Games, yielding a mere three goals all tournament. The World Cup defense took a hit with Duncan Keith sidelined by injury, but Shea Weber, Marc-Edouard Vlasic, Drew Dougthy, Alex Pietrangelo and Jay Bouwmeester all return. Jake Muzzin adds defensive stability while Brent Burns injects an air of enthusiasm and offensive pep.Carey Price should be a lock to start in goal. Canada also has Vezina Trophy winner Braden Holtby along with two-time Stanley Cup champion Corey Crawford.NORTH AMERICAThe North Americans could be the most exciting team to watch.Built with players 23-and-younger from Canada and the U.S., the team has some of the brightest young talents in hockey, from Connor McDavid to Aaron Ekblad, Jack Eichel, Johnny Gaudreau and Nathan MacKinnon. Imagine Auston Matthews paired with fellow No. 1 overall picks Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and MacKinnon or Eichel teamed with the shifty Gaudreau.The defense is young and inexperienced, led by Ekblad, the Florida Panthers 20-year-old standout along with Morgan Rielly of the Maple Leafs and Seth Jones from the Columbus Blue Jackets. Matt Murray, the Penguins Stanley Cup-winning goaltender, and Anaheims John Gibson could be busy.SWEDENSilver medal winners in Sochi, the Swedes are a good bet to challenge for the World Cup crown.The defense is led by superstar Erik Karlsson and all-around Tampa Bay Lightning stalwart Victor Hedman, complemented by Anton Stralman, Hampus Lindholm, Niklas Hjalmarsson and Oliver Ekman-Larsson. Every member of the group skates well and moves the puck easily.Up front, the Swedes are led by the still-productive Sedin twins as well as Nicklas Backstrom and Loui Eriksson, and emerging talents such as Filip Forsberg and Gabriel Landeskog.Its a smart, responsible group with just enough firepower to complement that fine defense and goaltending, which comes once again from Henrik Lundqvist.UNITED STATESThe Americans have the reigning NHL scoring champ and Hart Trophy winner in Patrick Kane, the deepest goaltending in the tournament and a grind-it-out roster run by coach John Tortorella.The Americans finished a disappointing fourth in Sochi, edged 1-0 by Canada in the semifinal before getting stomped 5-0 by Finland in the bronze-medal game. They opted against bringing back Phil Kessel, their leading scorer from that tournament, and will rely instead on feisty, blue-collar types such as David Backes, Brandon Dubinsky, Justin Abdelkader and Ryan Kesler.Beyond Kane, Jets winger Blake Wheeler, Montreal captain Max Pacioretty, Wild star Zach Parise, and Leafs winger James van Riemsdyk, theres just not the same level of high-end skill on teams such as Canada, Sweden, Finland, Russia and North America.The defense is solid, if unspectacular, with Ryan Suter andd Ryan McDonagh as well as a potential game-changer in Dustin Byfuglien. Canada Goose Manteau Femme. With Jonathan Quick, Ben Bishop and Cory Schneider, the Americans have three of the best goaltenders in the tournament.FINLANDWith medals at five of the last six Olympics, the Finns are unlikely to go quietly.This isnt the aging roster led by Teemu Selanne that won bronze in Sochi. It is brimming with youth, including Winnipeg Jets sensation Patrik Laine, Panthers center Aleksander Barkov as well as young defenders like Olli Maatta and Sami Vatanen. Thirteen players on the 23-man roster are aged 25 and younger. That should offer the Finns, who have always relied on savvy defense and stable goaltending, a little more pep and excitement.Finland is especially young on the back end, which could put more pressure on either Tuukka Rask or Pekka Rinne in goal.RUSSIAPerhaps no team in the tournament can boast game-breaking talent like the Russians.From Alex Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin to Vladimir Tarasenko and Nikita Kucherov, Russia is loaded with offensive talent. Of course, thats usually the case with the Russians, who have underperformed the past two Olympics, including a fifth-place showing on home soil in 2014.This squad is deeper though, primarily due to the influx of talented young players like the 23-year-old Kucherov (30 goals last season), 24-year-old Tarasenko (40 goals) as well as Artemi Panarin, the reigning Calder Trophy winner, and Evgeny Kuznetsov, the leading scorer (77 points) for the Presidents Trophy-winning Washington Capitals.Stack those stars on top of Ovechkin, Malkin and Pavel Datsyuk, the now former Red Wing legend, and theres plenty to fear here for World Cup opponents.Outside of 37-year-old Montreal Canadiens stalwart Andrei Markov, the defense is mostly a young contingent and the goaltending is riddled with question marks as both Semyon Varlamov and Sergei Bobrovsky had rocky performances last season.EUROPEThe team represents eight different nations -- France, Denmark, Germany, Slovakia, Slovenia, Switzerland, Austria and Norway -- and is a predictably mish-mashed roster tilted toward an aging group of NHL stars, including Zdeno Chara (39 years old), Marian Hossa (37), Marian Gaborik (34) and Thomas Vanek (32).On defense, Chara will be joined by 38-year-old Mark Streit, 35-year-old Dennis Seidenberg, and 34-year-old Christian Ehrhoff.New Kings captain Anze Kopitar gives the Europeans a powerful, two-way force down the middle, but there might not be enough scoring in this group to be a threat. Hossa, Gaborik and Vanek are all veterans and Oilers up-and-comer Leon Draisaitl is just 20.Jaroslav Halak is a solid option in goal.CZECH REPUBLICThe Czechs have a young roster that appears the weakest on paper heading into the World Cup.Petr Mrazek, the likely No. 1 netminder who was one of the NHLs best for the first half of last season, could be the difference. The team will need him to be red hot since it does not have much firepower after top center David Krejci backed out because of injury. Jakub Voracek fronts a forward contingent mixed with youth, such as 20-year-old David Pastrnak and 22-year-old Tomas Hertl, as well as aging talent like Milan Michalek and Ales Hemsky.The group on defense is easily the thinnest among the eight teams with Maple Leafs defender Roman Polak joined by the likes of Zbynek Michalek and Andrej Sustr.

EUGENE, Ore. --?Justin Gatlin?won the gold medal in the 100 meters at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. A dozen years later, at age 34, he is determined to win again.And his chances might have gotten better when two-time defending Olympic champion Usain Bolt?pulled out of the Jamaica national championships with a hamstring injury on Friday. Nonetheless, Gatlin said he still expects to have to beat Bolt next month at the Rio de Janeiro Games.Its an Olympic year, man, and crazy stuff always happens in an Olympic year, Gatlin said Saturday at the U.S. Olympic track and field trials. Thats just the mystery in the air of the Olympics. Its full of dreams, and sometimes dreams dont come true. I guess like anybody else, were going to have to see what will be determined for him. But cmon, hes Usain. Were going to see his face in Rio one way or another.If Bolt were competing for the United States, that would not be the case. An athlete must finish in the top three at the U.S. track and field trials to go on to the Olympics. Not so in Jamaica, where Bolt has been given a medical exemption, provided he can show his usual form later this month at a race in London.At the end of the day, when you command a certain power in track and field, you sometimes you have to exercise it. I think thats what hes doing, Gatlin ssaid. Ac Milan Maglia 2017. Hes injured and he has a medical pass. Thats what his country does. Our country doesnt do that. Youve got to come to the line, come ready, and if youre not ready that day, youre not getting on the boat to get to the Olympics.Asked whether he hopes Bolt is at full strength in Rio, Gatlin replied: At this point, Im just worried about the semis and the finals here.Gatlin reached Sundays semis with a time of 10.03 in the qualifiers on Saturday, the days sixth best time. Trayvon Bromell had the best time at 9.94, followed by Christian Coleman at 9.96 and Tyson Gay?at 9.97.Right now, everyone has to focus on what they have to do to race at trials and make the team, Gatlin said.Bolt holds the world record in the 100 with a time of 9.58, while Gatlins best time is 9.74. Gatlin said Bolts injury wont change his approach to Rio.Being a veteran, you cant let that change you. If I was a rookie, I might have thought I hit the lottery, Gatlin said. But at end of the day, you have so any people empowered by having their Olympic dreams coming true, they will look at it like, This is my chance too. So Im looking at it like I might be blindsided by somebody who will step up.

MARTINSVILLE, Va.

Madrid is third in the Spanish league, six points behind leader Barcelona, going into Saturdays game against Valladolid. The University of Colorado suffered a traumatic day on Wednesday.First, a man armed with a machete inside the Champions Center, the home of the football program and athletic administration, was shot and killed in the morning when he refused to drop the weapon, police said. Later that day, police responded to a false report of an active shooter at the student center.The unidentified man waved the knife in a menacing way during an altercation with another person in the parking lot of the sports complex and then went inside a building, campus police spokesman Scott Pribble said.Police confronted him and asked him to drop the weapon, Pribble said.He refused, and it was at that time for public safety that shots were fired, he said.Pribble said he did not know the nature of the altercation in the parking lot or whether the man was a student.The Boulder Daily Camera first reported the shooting.In a statement Wednesday afternoon before the second incident, Colorado athletic director Rick George said: Regarding the incident this morning in our Champions Center, first and foremost all our student-athletes and staff are safe. We have safety protocols in place, and when everyone received the campus alert, all responded accordingly and the protocols were effective.I want to recognize the Boulder and CU police departments for their prompt and swift response to this incident and neutralizing the suspect. Their quick actions allowed for this situation to be ended without further incident.The already tense campus then endured another scary scene, however, as false rumors of an active shooter in the schools main student center, University Memorial Center, created panic from students and a significant response from police.Dozens of police cars sped through the campus with lights flashing and sirens blaring, past the previous crime scene where football coaches remained in lockdown, to the student center a ffew blocks away. Thunder T-shirts. Students streamed out of the building, some of them crying, while police entered with rifles and heavy gun power.A tense and uncomfortable scene played out for the next 15 minutes as students tried to figure out what was happening. Some students in the food court area said everyone at once rushed out of the building, following one another in a sort of stampede, even though no gunshots were fired. Another student, on the floor above, said people began yelling about an active shooter, as the evacuation continued.No gunfire could be heard inside the building. At 1:14 p.m. MT, the universitys Twitter account posted, Alert: Shortly after 1:05 p.m., police officers rushed to UMC & College Avenue on FALSE report of active shooter. All Clear. No incidents.Even after the school issued the all clear, an investigation appeared ongoing, as several dozen more students and faculty exited the student center in a single-file line with their hands raised in the air. Police cars also still surrounded the building.Despite the original all-clear, the same official Twitter account issued a CU Alert 25 minutes later to notify students of unconfirmed reports of active harmer at the UMC. Avoid area. Take appropriate protective action. It was the second CU Alert that all students and faculty received -- both through Twitter and direct texts to their phones -- on Wednesday.The first came at 9:28 a.m., when the school said, an armed man with machete is in the Champion [sic] Center. Take appropriate protective action.Around 9:20 a.m. local time, police reported shots fired inside a stairwell and said the suspect was down. CU police then announced a suspect was in custody.Information from ESPNs Jeff Darlington and The Associated Press was used in this report.

Anthony Calvillo, through 20 CFL seasons, was frequently invincible and largely stoic in the heat of competition. But underneath the professional exterior he was, and is, compellingly human. POWDER SPRINGS, Ga. Ricky Williams Texas Jersey . -- Rain drops pelted the covered picnic pavilion at Ben Hill Strickland Sr. Memorial Park unrelentingly, a steady rain quickly becoming a downpour.It was the kind of wet afternoon only a duck could love, but that didnt deter Rajaan Bennetts former teammates, classmates, friends and family members. One by one, they trickled into the park to share stories and pay tribute to their fallen friend, who would have been 25 this fall.Bennett, a Vanderbilt football signee and honors student at McEachern High School in suburban Atlanta, was shot and killed in a murder-suicide on Feb. 18, 2010, while trying to protect his family. The gunman, Clifton Steger, was the estranged boyfriend of Bennetts mother, Narjaketha Bennett, and had broken into the home and taken the family hostage in the wee hours of the morning before shooting Rajaan and then turning the gun on himself.As short as Rajaans life was, it was profoundly impactful, and those who knew him best have gone to painstaking efforts to keep his memory alive. So when Narjaketha reached out to Rajaans friends to inform them of this story, nobody blinked when the day selected for everyone to gather happened to coincide with a monsoon.By the time Narjaketha showed up at the park with her son, Desyvon, and daughter, Narcharlette, as many as 10 people were already there waiting, and that number grew as others got off of work and fought through traffic all the way from downtown Atlanta.Ruth Ohanu, a biology major attending Georgia State, was there. She rode to school in the mornings with Rajaan along with another friend, Marissa Dean, and they used to entertain each other by talking about everything they were going to do with their lives.Rajaan was so competitive and would rub it in your face if he got a better grade in a class than you, but he was never condescending, Ohanu recalled. Thats just who he was, always pushing you to do better, and the thing I remember most about those conversations is that his hopes and dreams always began and ended with helping his family.Cousins Jaquesh Hunter and Taeron Brown were also there along with a cluster of former teammates, including Treston Moore, Robert Smith and Brandon Cleveland. Moore said he will forever be indebted to Rajaan for helping him woo his girlfriend.If it werent for Rajaan, I wouldnt have my son [Brayden], Moore said.Marcquis Roberts, who will be a senior linebacker at Kansas this season, was home that week and also swung by. Roberts started his career at South Carolina before transferring to Kansas and wears No. 5 in honor of Rajaan, who was a year ahead of Roberts at McEachern.Demarius Matthews, one of Rajaans closest friends, was a captain with Rajaan at McEachern and went on to play collegiately at Georgia State. He showed up a little bit late after picking up his three kids after work and brought them along. His oldest son, Jhakari, is named after Rajaan, whose middle name was Jhakari.Janine Laura, who had several classes with Rajaan, hustled over from her job at a physical therapy clinic.He showed us how to live, and thats why we are sitting out here six years later in the rain and talking about him, Laura said.Roberts, gazing into the distance as the rain continued to pour, nodded his head slowly.Hes one of the reasons I keep pushing, Roberts said. He had a drive to succeed thats in every one of us. School gets tough. Football gets tough, and I just think about him. Ive been through three surgeries in college, an ACL and both shoulders, but I know he wouldnt quit.He was at his best when things were the toughest.***That morning is still a blur for everybody who suffered through it. Narjaketha had recently broken up for good with Steger after trying to end it several other times. He didnt take the split well and continued sending harassing text messages and begging for her to take him back. Steger had been living with the family before Narjaketha told him he had to find someplace else to live and was even with the family at the school two weeks earlier to celebrate Rajaan signing with Vanderbilt.I changed my cell number four times, and he kept getting my new number, Narjaketha said. He was never abusive, but was asking me to write checks for him, money I didnt have, and I knew it was time for him to go.Rajaan had been the man of the house since he was 10, when his father, Charles, was killed in a head-on car collision soon after moving the family from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to the Atlanta area. Wise beyond his years, Rajaan gladly took on the dual role of big brother and surrogate father to Desyvon and Narcharlette. Desyvon, who is non-verbal and developmentally delayed, requires special care, and Rajaan was always right there to give him baths and cook meals for both his brother and sister, especially with his mother working long hours in Georgia Techs parking and transportation department.The week before the murder, Steger would sit outside Bennetts house in his car, calling and texting Narjaketha, who had already discussed with officers at her work what she needed to do to keep Steger away from her and her kids. They advised her to go see police in Powder Springs, which she was planning to do on her next off day.I just remember one of the last things [Steger] said to me was, Those things that make you smile will make you cry, said Narjaketha, who cant get those chilling words out of her head.That next morning, she awoke at 2 a.m. with Steger standing over her and holding a 22-caliber pistol to her head. He initially ordered her, the three kids and Narjakethas brother, Taiwan Hunter, into a bathroom. Taiwan was staying with the Bennett family at the time and was sleeping on the couch. Later, Steger changed his mind and allowed Desyvon to remain in one of the bedrooms, where he was watching television. Steger instructed Narjaketha to collect all of the cell phones.It was dark, and Rajaan just kept trying to reassure me and would say, Its going to be OK, mom, Narjaketha recalled. What [Steger] first told me was that he wanted me to kill him with his gun, and then he made me tape everybody up and put them in the bathroom.Thinking quickly, Narjaketha told Steger she had recently lost her phone, but in truth had hidden it under her pillow. She managed to sneak it to Rajaan, and when Steger left the bathroom briefly, Rajaan called 911 and whispered to police what was happening.Julie Collins, a lieutenant in the Powder Springs Police Department, was one of the first officers on the scene. She said Rajaan saved lives by having the presence of mind and courage to call 911.In my honest opinion, after doing this for 20 years, my belief is that [Steger] would have ended up taking all of their lives had Rajaan not made that call, Collins said. He was very brave. Most of the time, when guns come out, people run. But this kid protected his sister until the very end and did everything he could to protect his family. He would have gone to any length to protect them.When the police showed up at the house, Steger pulled Narjaketha out of the bathroom and instructed her to go tell them everything was OK. When she got to the front door, she was hysterical.All we heard then were footsteps, Taiwan said. He was out of his mind, love-struck and crazy, and coming back for us.Taiwan met Steger at the bathroom door, wrestled with him and did his best to get the gun. In doing so, Taiwan was shot in the abdomen and managed to stagger out the front door of the house and was quickly grabbed by officers.Im from the streets. I knew what was about to happen, said Taiwan, who underwent surgery for a punctured lung. He was going to kill us all, and I tried to grab the gun. All I heard were two shots, and then I look down and see blood, and my ears start ringing. It was like it was forever between those two shots. I knew I might die, but at least my nephew and niece would live.After tussling with Taiwan, an enraged Steger turned his attention back to the bathroom, where Rajaan had managed to undo his tape by then. Steger barreled in and started shooting indiscriminately. All Narcharlette remembers is Rajaan grabbing her and covering her up in the bathtub.Rajaan was on top of me, and everything just went silent, Narcharlette said. I heard the gun fall and could see [Steger] lying there on the floor.Her only concern was her big brother.I kept telling Rajaan to get up, to get up off of me, that it was over, that [Steger] had shot himself, Narcharlette said, her voice trailing off and her eyes moist. It happened so fast. ... I had blood on my hands when I crawled out from under Rajaan and even poured water on his face to try and wake him up. He wasnt moving.Rajaan had been shot through the heart. His last two acts before dying were shielding his sister from a spray of bullets that would have almost certainly killed her and then calling out to his mother, who by that time was out of the house. But Rajaan had no way of knowing if she were dead or alive at that point.He was yelling for Mom. Thats the last thing I heard him say, Narcharlette said.***Its the kind of unspeakable tragedy that resonates. It resonates in the Powder Springs community, where Rajaan was revered. It resonates across the Vanderbilt campus, where even three head coaches later, Derek Mason speaks with conviction about Rajaans place in the Commodore family. And most of all, it resonates in the hearts and minds of Rajaans classmates, teammates and coaches at McEachern, not to mention those teammates at Vanderbilt he never got a chance to play with.I never met Rajaan until the recruiting process, but it didnt take me long to realize what we were getting, just the entirety of the man he was, said former Vanderbilt defensive end Kyle Woestmann, who was a part of the same 2010 signing class as Rajaan.Ill never forget him texting me one night and saying, Hey, bro, Im going to Vandy. I couldnt have been happier. We were pulling together one of the best classes in Vanderbilt history. We already had Andre Hal and Jordan Matthews, and Rajaan was going to be the cherry on top. LaMichael James Oregon Jersey. . To this day, I still pray about it, pray for his family and pray for him.Its amazing how many lives that kid touched in just 18 years.The tears shed for Rajaan would have filled up any football stadium. His friends and family still miss him dearly. They still love to tell stories about him, from how he loved making nachos for friends, to his penchant for playing pranks, to the way he punished would-be tacklers on the football field.But more than anything, they want to make sure Rajaans legacy endures.I really think he was an angel. Theres no way one person could bring that many people together, Cleveland said.Marcus Gamble, one of Rajaans closest friends, was talking on the phone with Rajaan the night before Rajaan was killed.Youre never supposed to question God. But of all people, why did that have to happen to Rajaan? said Gamble, whose parents, Willie and Priscilla, were also a big part of Rajaans life. Its like I said at his funeral. If I could go up there for him to heaven and let him come back down here and be with his family, knowing everything he meant to them, I would do it. Unfortunately, it doesnt work like that.Taiwan admits the ordeal shook his faith as well.Even if Rajaan never played a down in the NFL, he was going to be a millionaire. He was that special, Taiwan said. He was his mamas savior and became a man when everybody else his age was just a boy. He had to because his daddy died so young. He called me, Unc, and would always look at me and say, Unc, Ive got big plans for this family. Desyvon was only 17 when Rajaan was killed, and Narcharlette was 14. Desyvon knows his brother is gone, but is unable to express himself. Still, hes rarely without a smile or his trusty Vanderbilt cap and glowingly points to Rajaans picture in the familys living room. Narcharlette took Rajaans murder the hardest.She wrote a gripping essay as a freshman in high school detailing the last minutes of Rajaans life. It was titled The Little Sisters Story, and in it she refers to her brother as a super hero.Id dream sometimes that he was back, and then youd wake up, Narcharlette said. It just didnt seem real. None of it did, and I didnt want to believe he was really gone. Hed always been right there, always such a big part of our lives. If he was cooking, hed make me do the dishes, and maybe wed split the laundry, but he took care of us.The ultimate team player in football, Rajaan never had any problem prioritizing what was most important. There were times he had to leave practice early to pick up his brother and get him home safely.Hes a kid who never missed practice, McEachern football coach Kyle Hockman said. But hed let you know if he had to leave at a certain time to go take care of his brother. Thats who he was to the core.***On the football field, Bennett blossomed into a coveted running back prospect and rushed for more than 1,800 yards and 28 touchdowns his senior season. He helped lead McEachern to an unbeaten regular season in 2009 and was the heartbeat of that team. Even now, the McEachern team will watch some of his pregame speeches that were captured on video.He was big and thick and ran hard, but his greatest attribute was his ability to raise everybody elses game, said McEachern athletic director and former head football coach Jimmy Dorsey, who coached Rajaan his first two years in high school.Several SEC schools offered Rajaan, but he chose Vanderbilt to the delight of then-Vanderbilt coach Bobby Johnson, now a member of the College Football Playoff selection committee. Johnson knew what Rajaan could do for his program and, just as importantly, knew what Vanderbilt could do for him. Rajaan planned to major in architecture and planned to become the first person in his family to graduate from college.You never imagine anything like that happening, Johnson said. As football coaches, you learn early on to deal with adversity, but something like that isnt a part of football. Thats something that sticks with you. He was doing the right things, the right way. He was building a better life, and it was paying off. He had the talent and the will to do anything he wanted, and thats why he wanted to come to Vanderbilt.And then, just like that, hes gone.As fate would have it, Johnson never coached another game. He resigned five months later, just weeks before the start of preseason practice, after nine years as Vanderbilts coach. At the time, Johnson said football was not life ... but that it consumes your life and mused, You only have so many years to live.Johnson insisted at the time there wasnt a singular factor that led to his decision. But as he looks back now, he concedes seeing such a promising kid struck down so tragically took an irreparable toll.I cant say that was the reason. Im not going to say that, Johnson said. A lot of factors go into a decision like that, but Rajaans death was certainly a factor. You hurt for a kid like that, hurt for his family, and the fact that you dont get an opportunity to coach a guy you knew was the perfect fit for your school and your program hurts, too.Johnson endured a similar tragedy in 2004 when Vanderbilt running back Kwane Doster was shot and killed in Tampa, Florida, while sitting in the backseat of a friends car.You never forget those things as long as you live, Johnson said. I remember both phone calls like it was yesterday. Its hard to get it out of your head. Both were great kids, and I mean great kids. You see other kids mess up and go on, and here are two kids who wanted to get ahead, who wanted to help their families, and then somebody cuts them down.***To this day, nobody in the Bennett family has gone back to that house on Woodcrest Drive where the murder occurred. Narcharlette said her stomach knots up if shes anywhere in the area. In fact, Taiwan said the family as a whole has never really discussed that horrific morning.We just left it there, Taiwan said. It was too painful to talk about.Narjaketha refuses to speak Stegers name, and until ESPN.com approached her, she had not spoken publicly about the details of her sons murder. She chooses her words carefully, smiling softly any time somebody offers a remembrance of Rajaan. She wears his class ring on her right index finger and has his signature tattooed on her left wrist.She and Narcharlette also wear blue-and-gold bands on their wrists with the words from Rajaans last Facebook post: Dont be scared. On their living room wall hangs a framed No. 5 Vanderbilt jersey, which was presented to the family when Vanderbilt honored Rajaan prior to a 2010 game.Only in the past few months has Narjaketha brought herself to open a huge box of letters written by students at McEachern following Rajaans death. They ranged from his closest friends to those who barely knew him but admired what he stood for on and off the field.I just felt like its time to talk about it, time to make sure everyone knows how much Rajaan meant to all of us, to make sure we keep his memory alive, and maybe our story will help somebody else out there, Narjaketha said.At McEachern, there are heartfelt reminders of Rajaan everywhere. His old locker is now a shrine. It was moved to the front of the Indians locker room, and everything in it was left as is, including a pair of his cleats and old newspaper clippings.A tradition at McEachern home football games is for fans to hold up five fingers just before the opening kickoff. Its their way of remembering Rajaan, whose face is emblazoned on a plaque adjacent to the field. The McEachern players pass the memorial as they make their way to the field.Its our way of Keeping 5 Alive, Hockman said. Its that strength and faith, what he stood for as a person, and we want to keep that legacy going in our program as a core value, but then also keep his spirit and what he meant to us.A lot of the kids playing for us now probably didnt know him, and some of them may not remember seeing him play, but they know what Rajaan Bennett embodied -- and thats never going away.Nobody at McEachern has worn No. 5 since Rajaan was killed, and they never will as long as Im here, Hockman said.Narcharlette is living, breathing proof of how Rajaan lived his life. His selflessness, which even before his heroism on the morning he died, was a big part of what endeared so many people to him.He gave up his life to save mine, Narcharlette whispers softly.***Now 20, Narcharette cherishes her brothers memory and is using it as motivation to join the Air Force. She knows its what Rajaan would have wanted for her and admits she went into a shell after he was murdered.But I always felt him there with me. We all did, and weve done our best to draw from his strength, Narcharlette said.It has been a struggle financially for the Bennett family. Theyve moved a couple of times. Narjakethas father died of cancer two months after Rajaan was killed, and she lost her job at Georgia Tech after having to spend more time taking care of her mother, who died of congestive heart failure in October.Theyre buoyed, though, by Rajaans ultimate sacrifice. Eight days before he was killed, Rajaan wrote an essay for his multi-cultural literature class titled Strength. In one of the excerpts, he talked about strength being a blanket to protect you from this cold world and vowed later in the essay that every obstacle has a way around it.The only thing that stopped Rajaan on that bitterly cold and sorrow-filled morning six years ago was a bullet. And even then, he was busy saving others until his last breath.Everything I do, I try to build Rajaan into it, said Matthews, softly rubbing the head of his 4-year-old son, who serves as a constant reminder of his dear friend. My oldest son is named after Rajaan, and even with all that, I guess I still havent dealt with it like Im supposed to. But you just keep moving, keep believing and keep loving.He taught us that.

The New York Jets havent played a game without middle linebacker David Harris since 2008. That likely will change Monday night.Harris, who pulled a hamstring last Sunday, was listed as doubtful Saturday after missing practice for a fourth straight day.It means his streak of 121 consecutive starts, the longest for an active linebacker and second longest among current defensive players, probably will come to an end when the Jets visit the Arizona Cardinals on Monday.Dallas Cowboys cornerback Brandon Carr?is first among defensive players with 131 straight starts, while?New York Giants QB Eli Manning leads all active players with 188 in a row.The Jets departed Saturday after a light practice at their facility. That Harris wasnt able to participate in what was described by coach Todd Bowles as a jog-through is ominous.In two seasons, Bowles never has played someone with the doubtful listing on the final injury report.Harris, an every-down linebacker who calls the defensive signals, likeely would be replaced in the base defense by Erin Henderson, who?would slide over from the weak-inside position.

A lower middle order collapse on the final day could not stop Barbados from taking the first-innings lead against Jamaica in their drawn match at Sabina Park in Kingston. Tristan Thompson Jersey .Rain did not allow Jamaica to bat on the first day after being put in. When the match began on the second day, they were quickly reduced to 21 for 4 thanks to damaging opening spells by fast bowlers Kemar Roach (3 for 27) and Justin Greaves (2 for 49). Jamaica strung together three consecutive partnerships that were all in the thirties. Opener John Campbell was common to all of them, scoring 60 before he was the seventh wicket to fall with the score on 129. The tail stuck around before the final pair - of Nikita Miller (24*) and Derval Green (40) - put on 57 to take them to 224.In reply, Barbados lost Omar Philips in the second over. But a second-wicket partnership of 111 between Anthony Alleyne (66) - following his 88 and 186 in the previous match - and Shamarh Brooks (44) provided stability. Barbados lost their next three wickets for 37 runs, and after a fifth-wicket stand of 67, suffered a collapse that saw them fall from 220 for 4 to 238 for 8. Left-arm spinner Fabian Allen (3 for 34) and fast bowler Reynard Leverdige (2 for 28) stood out for Jamaica. Barbados eventually folded for 273.Campbell scored 49 in the second innings to put on 92 with his opening partner Shacaya Thomas (42), who was the second and last wicket to fall before the match finished with Jamaica on 112 for 2.Rain allowed play only sporadically on the second and third days of the draw between Trinidad & Tobago and Leeward Islands in Port-of-Spain.T&Ts opening pair of Kyle Hope and debutant Isaiah Rajah put on 162 after being put in. Hope scored a career-best 86, while Rajah was dismissed for 69. After the opening stand, though, Leeward Islands fought back. Offspinner Rahkeem Cornwall (2 for 73) broke the opening stand, and his captain Kieran Powell (3 for 29) joined in with his part-time offspin to trigger a collapse that reduced T&T to 172 for 4, and then 196 for 6.The tail hung on till the end of the 92nd over, led by Roshon Primus (42*), and took the total to 287 for 8 before rain washed out the rest of the game.

Mitch Marsh scored 32 and conceded 32 runs in the tri-series final in the West Indies. Is this the highest identical number in an ODI? asked Rory Sackville from Australia Rather surprisingly perhaps, Mitchell Marshs performance for Australia against West Indies in the recent tri-series final in Bridgetown - he scored 32 then took 3 for 32 - isnt close to the top of this particular list for one-day internationals. There are 26 higher such doubles, nine of them 50 or higher. The highest of all was by Khurram Khan of the UAE, with 78 and 2 for 78 against Bangladesh in Lahore in June 2008. The highest for Australia was by Kepler Wessels, who scored 50 against West Indies in Perth in 1983-84 then, bowling what someone once described as nude seamers, took 2 for 50. The only other one higher than Marshs double was Brett Lees 38 not out and 4 for 38 against West Indies in Adelaide in 2004-05. In that match Lee and Jason Gillespie added 73 for the tenth wicket - then shared six wickets as Australia won by 73 runs.Was Jason Roys 162 the highest score by an opener in ODIs? asked Qudrat Ullah Rahimi from Pakistan Jason Roys 162 against Sri Lanka at The Oval last week was the highest score by an England opener in one-day internationals, beating Andrew Strauss 158 in the tie against India in Bangalore during the 2011 World Cup. Strauss occupies the next two places on Englands list, too, with 154 against Bangladesh at Edgbaston in 2010, and 152 against them at Trent Bridge in 2005 (England have only four of the 66 scores of 150-plus in ODIs). Overall, though, Roy is well down the list: there have been 31 higher scores by openers in one-day internationals, including all six of the formats double-centuries. The biggest of all is Rohit Sharmas 264, for India against Sri Lanka in Kolkata in November 2014.In one of the recent ODIs between England and Sri Lanka, the umpire was wearing some contraption on his hand. What was it? asked Surendra Daya from South Africa The thing youre referring to was worn by the Australian umpire Bruce Oxenford on his left arm during the second match of the recent one-day series between England and Sri Lanka, at Edgbaston. Its a plastic shield, designed to protect the umpire in the event of the ball being smashed back straight at him - he can try to parry the ball away with the shield. Oxenford wore it during a match in this years IPL, and also in one of the warm-up games for the World Twenty20 - but this was the first time it had been used in a full international match.Liam Plunkett took his 50th ODI wicket in the series against Sri Lanka, ten years after his debut. Is this the longest for anyone to achieve this feat? asked Durgesh Kulkarni from India Liam Plunkett reached 50 wickets when he dismissed Kusal Perera in the third match of the recent series against Sri Lanka, in Bristol. It took him 37 matches, spread over more than 10? years since his debut in December 2005. Thats the slowest in terms of time for England apart from Graeme Swann, who took about a month longer. Swann, though, went wicketless oon his debut, against South Africa in Bloemfontein in January 2000, then didnt play another ODI for more than seven years, taking 1 for 47 in his second game, against Sri Lanka in Dambulla in October 2007. Tristan Thompson Cavaliers Jersey. . Overall 11 men took more time than Plunkett to reach 50 wickets in ODIs. Pakistans Saleem Malik, who needed 203 matches spread over almost 12 years, took the longest of all. Most of the players concerned were not frontline bowlers, although there is a rather surprising name just above Plunkett: Imran Khan, Pakistans World Cup-winning captain in 1992, took five days longer to make it to a half-century of wickets, finally doing so in March 1985 after making his debut in 1974. He got there in style, though, with 6 for 14 against India in Sharjah - and it should be borne in mind that far fewer ODIs were played back then. Jonny Bairstow took 19 catches in the recent Test series against Sri Lanka. Was this a record for a three-Test series, or against Sri Lanka? asked Tushar Mukherjee from the United States The only wicketkeeper to make more dismissals in a three-Test series than Jonny Bairstows 19 was, by coincidence, a Sri Lankan: Amal Silva made 22 (21 catches and a stumping) against India in 1985-86. The only other keeper to make 19 dismissals in a three-Test series is Australias Ian Healy, at home to Sri Lanka in 1995-96 (17 catches and two stumpings). Gil Langley (for Australia in the 1956 Ashes series) and Junior Murray (for West Indies in Australia in 1992-93) both made 19 dismissals in three Tests, but those were five-match series in which they did not play in two of the games. The previous England record for a three-Test series was 17 (one stumping) by Geraint Jones at home to Sri Lanka in 2006.Which bowlers have the best figures on debut in Tests, ODIs and Twenty20s? asked Subas Karki from Nepal The best innings figures on debut in Tests remain 8 for 43, by the Australian medium-pacer Albert Trott against England in Adelaide in 1894-95. Trott also scored 110 runs in that match without being dismissed … but, remarkably, played only four more Tests - two of them for England! The best match figures by a debutant are 16 for 136, by legspinner Narendra Hirwani for India against West Indies in Madras (now Chennai) in 1987-88. He just shaded the Australian swing bowler Bob Massies equally remarkable first-up figures of 16 for 137, in the 1972 Ashes Test at Lords. The best bowling figures on one-day international debut are 6 for 16, by the South African fast bowler Kagiso Rabada against Bangladesh in Mirpur in July 2015. The only other man to take a six-for on ODI debut is another fast bowler, Fidel Edwards, with 6 for 22 for West Indies v Zimbabwe in Harare in November 2003. And the best by someone in their first T20 international is 5 for 13, by the Bangladesh slow left-armer Elias Sunny against Ireland in Belfast in July 2012.Send in your questions using our feedback form.

Breaking three of his own world records on his way to winning in Paris, Chan silenced the critics and left the audiences standing in appreciation and awe. http://www.nbaknicksauthority.com/tracy-mcgrady-knicks-jersey-c-18/ .com) - Richie Incognito has reportedly been admitted to a psychiatric care unit in Arizona. INDIANAPOLIS -- Trace McSorley threw four touchdown passes Saturday night and No. 8 Penn State stunned No. 6 Wisconsin 38-31, rallying from a 21-point first-half deficit to claim its first conference title in eight years with the greatest comeback in Big Ten title game history.Now the East Division champs must wait to see if the selection committee rewards them with one of the four coveted playoff spots on Sunday.If the committee was impressed with the turnaround, it just might give the Nittany Lions (11-2) a chance.They trailed 28-7 with 5:15 left in the first half, but McSorley led Penn State to touchdowns on each of its next four possessions, finally taking a 35-31 lead on an 18-yard TD pass to Saquon Barkley with 13:41 left in the game. The Nittany Lions never trailed again.Things looked bleak early, but McSorley repeatedly burned the nations No. 3 defense with long passes on a record-breaking night.McSorley finished 22 of 31 for 384 yards. The yardage and TD passes were both Big Ten championship game records. He also broke the schools single-season records for yards passing and touchdown passes.And he wasnt the only one to have a memorable performance. Saeed Blacknall caught six passes, two for touchdowns, and finished with a championship-game record 155 yards.Wisconsin (10-3) played without starting quarterback Alex Hornibrook but still jumped to a 28-7 lead behind Corey Clement, who ran 21 times for 164 yards including a 67-yard TD run in the first quarter.But the Badgers usually stout defense allowed a season-high point total and allowed the Nittany Lions to score on each of their last six possessions.Their final chance ended when Clement was stopped short of a first down on fourth-and-1 from the Penn State 24-yard line with 1:01 to play.THE TAKEAWAYPenn Sttate: Consider the turnaround is complete. Allan Houston Jersey. Five years after the Jerry Sandusky scandal tainted the program and the late Joe Paternos legacy, and the ensuing NCAA sanctions seemed to put the Nittany Lions on the fast track to nowhere, they are Big Ten champs and look like a real national championship contender.Wisconsin: After winning their first two title game appearances, the Badgers have now lost their two -- in shocking fashion. Coach Paul Chryst never could have expected this from a defense that hadnt allowed more than 30 points all season and had only allowed No. 2 Ohio State to gain more than 400 yards in a game this year.POLL IMPLICATIONSPenn State: Coach James Franklin insisted all week that his team was focused more on winning a Big Ten title. Now, the lobbying can begin -- if Franklin wants to. The argument goes like this: Co-champs of the toughest division in college football, championship game winners of the best conference in football and the only team to beat No. 2 Ohio State. Will it be enough?Wisconsin: In the first half, the Badgers looked like they would be making their case to the committee. Instead, the Badgers have no idea what will happen next. They should still wind up in a New Years Day bowl game thanks to a schedule that included six games against top 10 teams and no losses to a team ranked lower than No. 8.UP NEXTPenn State: Will eagerly wait to see who is next on the schedule.Wisconsin: Will wait to see who theyll get in the postseason, one that could have been much more interesting had they protected their lead.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' ' 

ST. Timberwolves T-shirts . LOUIS -- After a strong bounce-back game following two sub-par efforts, Jake Allen will be back in goal Wednesday night for the St. Louis Blues in a key Central Division game against the Chicago Blackhawks.Allen needed to play well in his last game on Sunday night against Colorado after allowing a combined nine goals in regulation losses last week on the road against the New York Rangers and Dallas Stars.Given a little more breathing room when the offense snapped out of its scoring slump with five goals, Allen was back to his old form, allowing only one goal -- off a deflection through traffic -- in a 5-1 win over the Avalanche.Allen stopped 22 shots and helped keep the Avalanche scoreless on six power-play opportunities, the kind of effort the Blues expected when they made their number one goalie this year with the offseason trade of Brian Elliott to Calgary and signed Allen to a four-year contract extension.The win followed an overtime victory over Columbus on Saturday night behind backup goalie Carter Hutton and gave the Blues consecutive wins for the first time since they opened the season with a three-game winning streak.To string together two wins was important for us not just for the points but for the morale and momentum and confidence in this group, Allen said.Now the Blues will be looking to build on that effort against the Blackhawks, who lead the Central Division with three more points than the Blues.The Blues will make one lineup change, with Petteri Lindbohm, recalled from Chicago of the American Hockey League, replacing defenseman Joel Edmundson, who was played on injured reserve on Monday because of an upper-body injury.The Blackhawks also come into Wednesday nights game as one of the hottest teams in the league, having won their last six games, including beating Dallas in overtime in their most recent game on Sunday night.Part of their success can be attributed to coach Joel Quennevilles decision to put his top two forwards, center Jonathan Toews and right winger Patrick Kane, on the same line for the first time since the 2009-2010 season.The Blackhawks have gone 6-0 since Toews and Kane were reunited. Toews did not have a goal and just two assists in the teams first seven games but has four goals and four assists during the winning streak. Kane has scored three goals and added five assists since the pair began playing together.If our line can set the tone, or create more, have more shifts in their end, its going to be good for our team in the long run, Kane told the Chicago Sun-Times. It could be a great thing for our team, and one of those things that you didnt really expect to happen.Corey Crawford is expected to start in goal for the Blackhawks. He has won his last three games, allowing a combined three goals. Jordan Hill Timberwolves Jersey . -- Devin Hester is done returning kicks in Chicago. Tyus Jones Timberwolves Jersey .

Now, with Game 6 set for Fenway Park and an 8:07 p.m. ET first pitch, the Detroit Tigers face the unenviable task of having to beat the Boston Red Sox twice, on the road, to advance to the World Series. NEW YORK -- Christian Yelichs two-run single had chased Matt Harvey in the fourth inning and given Miami a 6-0 lead over the Mets.Tom Koehler appeared to have rebounded from consecutive poor outings, breezing through the first inning on six pitches after needing 46 to get his first three outs against Detroit last week.But a 4 a.m. arrival following their win over Atlanta at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, seemed to catch up with the Marlins.Travis dArnaud and Curtis Granderson started New Yorks comeback with solo homers, Yoenis Cespedes hit a tiebreaking, two-run double off Fernando Rodney in the eighth and Chris Johnson hit into a game-ending double play with runners at the corners. With a deflating 8-6 loss Monday, third-place Miami remained 6 1/2 games behind NL East-leading Washington and dropped 2 1/2 games back of the second-place Mets.This was the bullpens game to lose and we lost it, reliever Kyle Barraclough said. That was, just for myself, especially pathetic.Koehler, who attended nearby Stony Brook University, is an area native whose father was among the New York Police Departments first responders on 9/11. He has had problems early in games, entering with a 7.31 first-inning ERA.The bottom three in the Marlins batting order went 5 for 6 against Harvey, with Miami benefiting from the first of two video review challenges it won. Miami scored three in the second on run-scoring singles by Johnson and Koehler around Adeiny Hechavarrias RBI double. The lead doubled in the fourth when Harvey threw wildly past dArnaud to the backstop on Martin Prados bases-loaded, one-out comebacker, and Yelich followed with a single.Youre up 6-0, you feel like you should win, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. For us it needs to be a lesson learned. Weve got to keep playing. Weve got to keep trying to score, and you cant ever let your guard down.Solo home runs by dArnaud in the fourth and Granderson in the fifth off Koehler started the collapse.New York closed to 6-4 in the sixth against Barraclough when dArnaud reached on a bases-loaded infield single and pinch-hitter Kelly Johnson grounded into a run-scoring double play. TThe Mets tied the score in the seventh off David Phelps on Cespedes first double, James Loneys RBI grounder and Wilmer Flores sacrifice fly. Wisconsin Badgers Jerseys. Theres going to be hiccups, Koehler said of the bullpen. Its a long season. Its unfortunate that it all happened in one night, but at the same time its a good thing that it all happened in one night because now they can go back to being as great as theyve been.DArnaud reached on an infield single starting the eighth against Rodney (0-2), who was acquired from San Diego last week and had allowed just one earned run this season. Pinch-hitter Juan Lagares sacrificed and Neil Walker drew a walk before Cespedes lined a 97 mph pitch into right-center for his third hit.Were not going to be perfect all the time, Rodney said.After Ichiro Suzuki pinch hit leading off the eighth and doubled for his 2,990th hit, J.T. Realmuto walked to reach base for the fifth straight time. Loney charged from first and turned Prados bunt into a 3-5-4 double play, and Jerry Blevins (3-0) struck out Yelich to strand Realmuto on third.Jeurys Familia walked Marcell Ozuna leading off the ninth, and Derek Dietrichs one-out single put runners at the corners. Johnsons double play gave Familia his major league-leading 29th save.We just need to kind of regroup and win these next two and gain a game and win the series, Realmuto said.STREAKINGRealmuto has hits in his last seven at-bats, one short of the Marlins record.WAITING FOR ICHIROMattingly said theres no reason to pick the 42-year-old Suzuki for a final celebratory appearance at the All-Star Game. He just talked about playing `till hes 50, so hes got another eight years, Mattingly said. So maybe like when hes 49 we can put him in the All-Star Game.TRAINERS ROOMMarlins 1B Justin Bour missed his second straight game after spraining his left ankle Saturday.UP NEXTLHP Steven Matz (7-3) starts for the Mets on Tuesday night against Miami LHP Wei-Yin Chen (4-3).
